Che Marville

The Oakville NDP candidate Che Marville won the nomination last summer.

Marville said at the time, she is dedicated to democracy, health, education, and compassion.

“I believe that the political landscape needs to change, it needs to be more compassionate, more reflective, more inclusive of new ideas, more truly democratic and bold,” she said.

Marville has a degree in political science from the French campus of York University.

Her biography describes her as a leading wellness advocate in the healthcare field, the creator of the first Employee Health and Mindfulness Centre at St. Joseph Healthcare Hamilton and former senior wellness advisor for the York University health network.

Oakville and District Labour Council President Dave Millar called Marville a strong NDP candidate.

“I look forward to seeing Che working to make Oakville a better community with her leadership, personality and political astuteness,” he said.
